Breaking Down Barriers

26th September 2023 @ 9:30 am - 4:00 pm
breaking down barriers

This is the first opportunity for the BDB network to get together in person since lockdown!

  •  26th September 2023 – London

Registration will be from 9:45 am
Start 10:00am
Finish 4:00pm
Lunch will be provided.
Our focus is on bringing the network together, strengthening ties and finding opportunities for collaboration.

Our keynote speakers (to be announced soon) will introduce key changes in the world of genetic services, testing and research.

The workshops are:

  • Engaging Excluded Communities.
  • Working together on Patient and Public Involvement and learning from people with lived experience.
  • Seizing new opportunities in the genetics field

You will have an opportunity to explore two of the above.

The afternoon will include space for us to explore up to three hot topics or challenges. These will be identified by members in attendance.

The workshop will identify challenges for individual member organisations and shared challenges across the network.  We will discuss possible solutions, ways to collaborate and explore how BDB can support you and your work.

You can send up to two members of your team to the event but if you would like more people to attend then please get in touch and we can add you to a waiting list. If there are practical challenges to your participation, please do give us a call to discuss them. We will do our best to make the events as accessible to the whole membership as possible. Get in touch with Catherine by email catherine.lewis@alstrom.org.uk to reserve your place today.
